thermapen

Grumpy's Q · 08-12-2009, 04:15 PM

My trusty Taylor instant read thermometer busted on me. Sad day.

I think I'm going to change to a thermapen. Are there any deals to be had on a thermapen? Going rate on a new one is $ 99.00. Any information is much appreciated!

Mike

If you order direct, you can get the original version for $74.00 (and worth every penny).

It goes without saying that Black is the fastest and most accurate.

I didn't see the older models when I looked the other day. Do now!

Mike - call and ask if they have any refurbs. If not, I might give you a bargain on a trusty grey one because I have been looking for a good reason to buy the new water-resistant one. I have two right now - don't let your wife clean your thermopen without explicit directions not to submerse in fluid - we thought it was ruined so I ordered another one because I had a contest that weekend. Once it dried it was fine and has been working ever since.

This again?

thillin · 08-12-2009, 04:57 PM

I think Daydots carries them. But I think my last coupon expired

thillin · 08-12-2009, 04:59 PM

Does this fall under the one eggcessory gift?

Ditto! Still haven't opened the new one.

If you don't get the right COLOR you will be BLUE with envy, if you get my drift.

Love the threads that pop up from time to time re thermopens.
There is nothing better than the feel and 'sperience but thermopens are a valuable tool/bullet in the bandolero when they are RAY-ED.
